Hi,
I've been having some odd problems with relocation of 4.x toolchains -
i.e. when a toolchain is configured, built and installed with one prefix
but later moved to another location. The binaries appear to be checking
something in the old location before reading from the new path.
The problem is only obvious on windows machines where the configured
prefix is a removable medium such as a CD/DVD or memory card drive when
the prebuilt toolchain is moved to a different machine. In this case a
dialog box pops up asking the user to insert a disk as shown in this
screenshot -> http://img159.imageshack.us/img159/9030/devkiterror3zp.jpg
. When a disk is inserted everything works as it should. The error does
not occur if the drive doesn't exist, is non removable media, or a disk
is inserted in the drive.
-print-search-dirs output from relocated toolchain, paths have been
separated for clarity. It looks like some paths are being relocated but
others are not.
$ /c/devkitARM/bin/arm-elf-gcc -print-search-dirs

I can work around this for now by configuring with a c:/ prefix but is
there a better way?
